"When I listen to Forever Now, I can still feel how sore my throat was from singing all night and then singing that even louder. But most of all I can still feel my lungs about to burst as I screamed ‘I AIN’T GONNA STAND IN LINE NO MORE!’ and the barrier shaking as I jumped until I couldn’t breathe. Then throwing up both of my arms to the pyros at the end. After the show, the security guard in front of me tapped me on the wrist and said he'd never seen anyone so into a show and it made him emotional, so he wanted me to have his setlist and Mike's pick. First time I ever got a Green Day setlist."

Love the idea of a scrapbook to go with a toy collection, how cute! Also this video does a great job showing off the wonderful molding and paint of G3 Ponyville ponies!

Harry Houdini Scrapbook [Photographs with Jack London] 

Creator/Contributor: Quincy Kilby (1854-1931), creator; Harry Houdini (1874 –1926), contributor 

Date created: 1904-1926 

Physical description: scrapbook 

Summary: This remarkable scrapbook was compiled by Houdini’s good friend Quincy Kilby, a Brookline resident and Boston theater impresario. Materials in this large volume were collected over a twenty-year period and include personal letters, photographs, programs, newspapers clippings, and other unique memorabilia. Knowing that Kilby was amassing this collection, Houdini would send him items specifically “for your Houdini scraps book.”  

The scrapbook is open to an eclectic spread of photographs of Houdini with Jack London and their wives in Oakland, California, in 1924; a lecture advertisement in which Houdini promises a sensational expose of miracle-mongers; and a note on Houdini’s personal stationery to Kilby with an apologetic postscript, “I was in Boston but was so fixt could not get away. Only 1 night.”   

Location: Boston Public Library, Rare Books & Manuscripts Department

You're like a little pearl,to be tucked away in an inherited chest of heirlooms and only worn on a special day , a lace fan reserved for the most intimate encounters, a rose pressed in the pages of a journal of love poems.

You, my dear, are not for mundaneness.🥀🥀🥀

I have this huge ass journal that has about 700+ pages and I had no idea what to put in it.

Today, I have decided to put EVERYTHING IN IT.

All the things.

I have so many scrap papers and stuff I found in old books that people were using as bookmarks.

I plan on taking more pics of wall art from bathrooms and sides of buildings that I see when I’m out and about.

Just toss it all in there!

Who tf cares?!

Not me!

Not anymore.

Longtime followers of this blog probably noticed I haven't made any journaling updates in a while. Long story short is I've been in a bit of a creative rut lately.

The good news is I've finally finished filling my latest journal, which I'd kept since January. That means I've been using it for nearly the whole first half of 2024.

It may take a while going through this whole thing, but for now here are some select spreads from January. February through July to follow later.

I made this in honor of Violet Sorrengail, my forever favorite character in a book. I just wish I had dragon stickers. And lighting stickers.
